Texas property owners make the decision to use O’Connor as their property tax consultant for the following reasons: O’Connor’s aggressive approach to property tax protests uses every avenue available including informal hearings, Appraisal Review Board (ARB) hearings, binding arbitration, SOAH (State Office of Administrative Hearing) and coordinating judicial appeals. Based on conducting millions of tax appeals throughout Texas, we have developed an in-depth understanding of what is needed to reduce your property taxes. O’Connor develops an extensive file for each property tax protest, often 50 to 100 pages of evidence regarding both market value and unequal appraisal. Our proprietary software tailors the evidence to a format the appraisal district prefers. O’Connor has the experience and expertise necessary to assemble uneven appraisal data and sales to satisfy the guidelines set by the Travis Central Appraisal District (CAD) and Travis County Appraisal Review Board (ARB).
